Most wanted new character for each weapon type


Recommended Posts

Wanted character threads are a fun combination of positivity and wishful thinking. Here, I'd like to add an extra challenge. Limit yourself to just 1 new character for each weapon type.


Sword

Lance

Axe

Bow

Dagger

Red Tome

Blue Tome

Green Tome

Staff

Breath

Beast

 

The reason why tomes are divided by color is that their colorations are very much non-arbitrary (each being associated with different magic types), whereas colored bows, daggers, and beasts are more arbitrarily assigned. Also, the lower volume of breath and beast candidates would make picking them less challenging if they had split colors.

A better justification for this would be that the three colours of Tomes are actually different weapon types, whereas bows/daggers/breath/strikes are all single weapon types with multiple colours.

Sword: Xane, because Chameleon. Gregor is a close second.

Lance: ...hmmm. Oh dear. I seem to have forgotten someone.

Axe: Duessel.

Red Tome: Laurent. Okay, he'd probably be a different colour, but I always had him as a Dark Mage. Sue me.

Blue Tome: Selena Fluorspar, I guess.

Green Tome: ...Ced, maybe?

Bow: Midori.

Dagger: Yukimura, I guess, for canon cavalry dagger.

Staff: Forrest.

Breath: Kurthnaga if dragon laguz are breath; Nah if not.

Strike: RANULF.

What I mean to say is that the different tome colors are very cleanly divided by type (red = fire & dark, blue = thunder & light, green = wind, ice, and ... draconic/divine, if Naga is any indication). 

 

Though it is rather difficult to assign tome colors for the GBA era given that anima magic often didn't have personal tomes or give much indication of a preferred element.

Still up for debate whether dragon laguz will consitute beasts or breaths. I'm personally counting them as breaths, because dragons already count as acceptable allies for beast transformation bonuses and there is nothing stopping them from adding transformation bonuses to Laguz breath weapons.

I don't know what colour would go with which character for tome, so I went based on character colour, even though that's probably not right. Hopefully it ended up right anyway xD

Sword: None coming to mind at the moment. Kent, maybe? For sure Ashnard needs to be a GHB sometime. I want Lif, too.

Lance: Gatrie, then Sain

Axe: Kieran, then Boyd then Schaeferr (FE9 ch22 boss. Would have awesome quotes.)

Bow: Shinon, (especially drunk NY!Shinon) with regular Shinon then Rolf as a runners-up

Dagger: Leila (red dagger, maybe?)

Red Tome: Tormod, then GHB Validar, I guess?

Blue Tome: Rhys (I know he's a staffer primarily, but I want to be able to use him offensively) then Artur

Green Tome: Um

Staff: Elena

Dragonstone: Nils (Green or colorless)

Special: other colors!

Red: Bantu, with Dheginsea as a close second, and as a GHB. Also Gareth. And Muspell (the dragon the country was named after.) Oh, and Rajaion. And Almedha.

Blue: Nasir and Nifl (the dragon the country was named after)

Green: Embla (the dragon the country was named after)

Colorless: Askr (the dragon the country was named after)

Beast: Rafiel? (blue)

Special: other colors!

Red: Caineghis. Ulki or Mordecai as runner-up

Blue: Ranulf

Green: Nealuchi, Janaff, or Muarim

Colorless: Yarne. Volug, maybe, as a runner-up. Giffca also feels like a colorless one.

 

Changed "breath" to "dragonstone" since there are other "breath" skills (i.e., "steady breah"), and really it's the dragonstone being used/equipped in most cases (comparable to bows as opposed to arrows.)

Blue Tome - Erk

Uh, Erk starts out with fire magic, doesn't he? He should be red.

Not in Eliwood/Hector's story, he starts with Thunder there.

And it'd give a Nino/Erk team proper color coverage.

But in Lyn's he has fire, I'm pretty sure, so I guess he could go either way. We have fewer red tomes than blue though, so I'm still saying red.

Also, don't most people ship Nino with Jaffar? I'd expect more players to use/support those two together. xP And I do admit their conversations are pretty touching from what I've heard/seen.

Most people ship Jaffar/Nino, but I honestly prefer shipping her with Erk... at least in part because I don't really like the other two Erk ships much and am not the biggest fan of Jaffar.  So to me, a Nino team won't be complete without Erk, hehe.  This isn't really the place to discuss this though.

Also, it's worth noting that in FE6, Lugh starts with a Fire tome and is green in FEH, while in FE8 Lute starts with Fire and is blue in FEH.  So starting weapons aren't the be-all-end-all, at least for GBA anima units.

I see. And yeah, true, this isn't the thread for this topic. xP

Oh, I see. It's been awhile since I last played Sacred Stones and I've never played FE6, so I hadn't really known that. Good point.
